Clin Toxicol 2015; online early: doi: 10.3109/15563650.2015.1022896: Introduction Tolperisone is a centrally acting muscle relaxant that acts by blocking voltage-gated sodium and calcium channels. There is a lack of information on the clinical features of tolperisone poisoning in the literature. The aim of this study was to investigate the demographics, circumstances and clinical features of acute overdoses with tolperisone. Methods An observational study of acute overdoses of tolperisone, either alone or in combination with one non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug in a dose range not expected to cause central nervous system effects, in adults and children (< 16 years), reported to our poison centre between 1995 and 2013. Current Awareness in Clinical Toxicology is produced monthly for the American Academy of Clinical Toxicology by the Birmingham Unit of the UK National Poisons Information Service, with contributions from the Cardiff, Edinburgh, and Newcastle Units. The NPIS is commissioned by Public Health England Results 75 cases were included: 51 females (68%) and 24 males (32%); 45 adults (60%) and 30 children (40%). Six adults (13%) and 17 children (57%) remained asymptomatic, and mild symptoms were seen in 25 adults (56%) and 10 children (33%).

They will see that it too pos- sesses talent, the equal of the best endowed.” What kind of scorn had Modena experienced? In 1611 Thomas Coryat published a book about his impressions of Venice. He referred to the sing- ing in the synagogue as “exceeding loud yelling, indecent roar- ing, and as it were a beastly bellowing.” What was the basis for Modena’s optimism? “There has arisen in Israel, thank God, a very talented man, versed in the singer’s skill, who has performed music before princes, yea, dukes and nobles. He set the words of the psalms to music or- ganized in harmony, designating them for joyous song before the Ark.” Salamone Rossi, That man was the Jewish composer Salamone Rossi, who, the Mystery Man of Jewish Art Music Composers in 1622, produced the first book of its kind: a stunning setting by Don Harrán 5 of the synagogue service. “He is more talented than any other Rabbis, Politics, and Music: man, not only those of our own people, for he has been com- Leon Modena and Salamone Rossi pared with, and considered the equal of, many of the famous by Howard Tzvi Adelman 8 men of yesterday among the families of the earth.” Lord & Tailor: As we listen to Rossi’s music we become aware of the ex- Fashioning Images of Jews in Renaissance Italy traordinary accomplishments of the Jews in Renaissance Italy.

  • Los Angeles Vacation Planner: How to Eat Your Way Around LA In
    Filipino star Ma'am Sir is one of LA's best new restaurants | Fried Chicken Sandwich Studios Filipino star Ma'am Sir is one of LA's best new restaurants | Fried Chicken Sandwich Studios TRAVEL Presented By It may come as a bit of a shock that Los Angeles, a place often imagined for beach bodies and plastic surgery, would be the ultimate destination for a vacation based around eating, but life is full of surprises. You’ll hear stories about how LA has “finally” figured out our culinary scene in the last few years (thanks for the pity visit, Michelin!), but the fact is that the city has always had a killer food scene. This is a city where ex-Nobu busboys open their own Mexican sushi restaurants , a city that essentially jump-started the food truck revolution (thanks Roy Choi!). It's where you can turn a quiet corner corner and walk directly into the heart of a Guatemalan street food market, or find world’s-best-sushi contenders in the dusty corners of a strip mall. LA is stuffed top to bottom with incredible things to eat. It's also, you know, one of America's biggest and most vibrant cities. And one of the best ways to see LA at its best is through the lens of food -- something that makes LA one of the 20 Best Places for a Big Trip in 2020 . In this guide, we’re talking about the Los Angeles of 2020. We're not sending you to Rodeo Drive, the Walk of Fame, old-world LA legacy restaurants, or any of Wolfgang Puck’s Beverly Hills establishments.

  • Running Head: PSYCHOLOGICAL VS
    Running head: PSYCHOLOGICAL VS. PHYSICAL HARM Neural substrates for moral judgments of psychological versus physical harm Lily Tsoi1, James A. Dungan2, Aleksandr Chakroff3, Liane L. Young1 1Department of Psychology, Boston College 2Center for Decision Research, University of Chicago 3Charlie Finance Contact information: Lily Tsoi 140 Commonwealth Ave McGuinn 300 Chestnut Hill, MA 02467 [email protected] PSYCHOLOGICAL VS. PHYSICAL HARM 2 Abstract While we may think about harm as primarily being about physical injury, harm can also take the form of negative psychological impact. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we examined the extent to which moral judgments of physical and psychological harms are processed similarly, focusing on brain regions implicated in mental state reasoning or theory of mind, a key cognitive process for moral judgment. First, univariate analyses reveal item-specific features that lead to greater recruitment of theory of mind regions for psychological harm versus physical harm. Second, multivariate pattern analyses (MVPA) reveal sensitivity to the psychological/physical distinction in two regions implicated in theory of mind: the right temporoparietal junction and the precuneus. Third, we find no reliable differences between neurotypical adults and adults with autism spectrum disorder with regard to neural activity related to theory of mind during moral evaluations of psychological and physical harm. Altogether, these results reveal neural sensitivity to the distinction between psychological harm and physical harm. Keywords: morality; theory of mind; autism; fMRI Words: 6201 PSYCHOLOGICAL VS. PHYSICAL HARM 3 1. Introduction Concerns about harm—about protecting the life and well-being of others—make up one of the primary types of moral concerns that people have (Graham et al., 2011; Shweder, Much, Mahapatra, & Park, 1997).

  • Tsofim Bring Flavor of Israel and Joy to Jcc Camp Daleville
    NEWS JEWISH COMMUNITY CENTER OF SCRANTON August 2011 TSOFIM BRING FLAVOR OF ISRAEL AND JOY TO JCC CAMP DALEVILLE On Monday July 25th, the Israel Scouts (Tsofim) Friendship Caravan visited JCC Camp Daleville (Scranton JCC’s sum- mer day camp in the Poconos). Their caravan rolled into camp with a lot of excitement! As they drove in, they were singing Israeli songs and making their presence known. After enjoying lunch with the campers, they led informal edu- cational activities for each camp group which included learning about Hebrew names, Israel’s geography & culture and Israeli games! The day culminated with an amazing music and dance performance like no other! The campers joined in song & dance as they experienced a taste of Israel in the Poconos! Following the performance, the Israel Scouts made their way down to the JCC for dinner and a “mifgash” (Hebrew for meeting) with our BBYO youth group members. This was an opportunity for our American Jewish teens to interact with Israeli teens of the same age. Friendships were born, and fun was had by all. The Israel Scouts Friendship Caravan consisted of 5 males and 5 females who were selected among 300 Israeli teens who auditioned. They travel across North America to share their lives in Israel through song, dance and story. This was the first time the caravan visited JCC Camp Daleville in fifteen years.
